I'm sure you already understand this, but this is an unprecedented political project that would require the vast majority of people to stop simply sitting by reacting to political events.

NVidia has a pretty good capture on the gaming market. Especially during the 980/1080 generations. I've also seen a ton of non media people insist on NVidia cuz of shadowplay.

This is speculation, but I don't think most new Linux users are building computers specifically for Linux. They're letting their computers age, then considering Linux when they see the cost of the new generation of NVidia hardware.

Let us not overestimate the general publics knowledge of hardware compatibility and operating systems in general. I think they conceptualize it like replacing a brick in a Lego wall. They'd have no reason to suspect it wouldn't work.

Well first you've gotta let neoliberals take power. Give that a couple decades to slide into fascism, then wages will plunge as corporate interests gain total control of the government. Wait a few more decades for these policies to come to bear. Only then can you take a slice of the pie of the overinflated budget of the imperial apparatus.

I've seen a few people go from brown nosers, to union men, to "mad about capitalism". Some of them even graduated to "this guy's been reading books", I know only one who's begun pitifully stockpiling arms and ammo and another who joined mutual aid. I'm still quite young, but most lefties of my early adulthood bourgeios white educated American caste are only considering action as a result of Israeli Imperialism and fear of a another world imperial struggle. The vast majorities of these are still socially tolerant neoloberals.

It's it really that hard to believe that members of the ruling class would conspire to enact their own will and interest?

History is spotted with blood spilled by consequence of rulers doing exactly this.

As someone who uses macos every day my worthless internet opinion is that the Gnome 4 desktop experience is far better for productivity. I mainly use a web browser, email, and ssh, so I tend to value windowing and multidesktop fluidity highly. This is also coming from a linux certified tech though.

Do you have any experience in the moto world? There at mesh garments, ie summer gear, that have CE rated padding; primarily, jackets, gloves, and boots. The butt and knee padding in some moto pants might even make your ride more comfortable.

I'm not suggesting people swap their lycras for leather. Bicycle gear as a category is not roadworthy. There is suitable gear, especially in the moto gear category, that is. Especially for ebikers.

He's charging $1 a month to prevent bots on a site where bots have $8 blue checkmarks from stolen credit cards. He's gonna get visa and MasterCard knocking if he starts being associated with Jagex style ccard fraud.

This is honestly why I tell people commuting to work to get moto gear. Having an impact rated helmet and pads, padded hard knuckles, and your countries self defense option of choice tucked in your jacket is the only real insurance policy for murderously negligent cagers. Bike helmets aren't suitable for road riding. Although I don't know if CE back armor would help a man who got hit hard enough to "[tear] his body apart". Although I suspect thats more describing the severe road rash that requires expensive moto gear to prevent.

Unseriously: I as a patriotic American keep a 200. caliber AT hand mortar on me for all my bike rides for self defense reasons.

Landlords should get a real job. Like day trader.

Even many traditional programs are too big for any one person to understand. Ie. The linux kernel. The question is what level of abstraction were going to be using to describe its behavior. Computers of full of metaphorical black boxes that are only said to work because they're tested to work the way you'd test an engine to see it's power.

The solution to bovine methane emissions is to install a cowalitic converter inside their mufflers. Just like we do with quad udder milk exhaust collectors.
